Referral Form Processing Information

The department hiring the student is responsible for initiating the Referral Form. Payroll prefers that all information (except signatures and dates) is typed by the department, especially the Pay Rate/Hour.

In order to process a student’s pay in a timely and accurate manner, all information on the Referral Form is used by and needed by Payroll; therefore, the entire Referral Form should be completed by the employer, then signed/dated by the student and the employer (2 signatures required)

The student should bring the Referral Form to Student Employment Programs for processing BEFORE the start date written on the referral form.

After processing the Referral, Student Employment Programs forwards the Referral Form to the Payroll Department.

A student will need a Referral Form for each different job the student has been hired for by a department.

After receipt of a Referral Form, Payroll creates a record for the student and the job listed on the Referral Form. This information has to update overnight before a student can clock in using Kronos.
